Experienced Basement Finshing & Remodeling Contractor Serving Preston County

Paula and Joshua of Reedsville WV had to first fix the leak along the rear foundation wall of their basement, before even thinking about finishing the area into a game room. The water intrusion happened during heavy raining periods, and was only getting worse.

Service Advisor Mike Richmond fixed the leak by proposing 39 ft. of our patented WaterGuard french drain within the floor against the wet foundation, with a connected SuperSump pump system. Water ffrom the outside with flow into the perverted drain and will be moved to the pump it is then pumped out of the home at a rate of 2,500 gallons of water per hour.

This system installed by Baker’s will allow Paula and Joshua to turn their basement into the game room of their dreams without fear of any water damage!

A Masontown, WV homeowner had a wet and unstable crawl space. The owner watched the problem get worse over the 5 years since he had moved into the house. He needed a permanent solution for the sagging, unstable floors and moisture problem. Our Service Advisor, Mike Richmond, bid the project, but the homeowner was not financially prepared to make a decision. After patiently waiting for two years, we got a call back from him with the OK to schedule the project.

Our Foreman, Ken Kahlbaugh II, and his crew installed our permanent crawl space repair and waterproofing solutions. Our crew sprayed our Mold-X2 Treatment to clean the affected areas and prevent further mold growth. Ken installed six 18'' SmartJacks to support the sagging beams and floor joists. Our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System can be adjusted overtime to provide additional straightening and leveling if needed. Also, our SmartJacks are compatible with our CleanSpace Crawl Space Vapor Barrier.

CleanSpace is our durable plastic liner that installs on walls and floors to improve crawl spaces. To help preserve the space, they also installed 4 CleanSpace Crawl Space Vent Covers. Ken and his crew installed our CleanSpace Drainage Matting to direct water to the perimeter crawl space drainage piping and our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump. 

Our proven solutions gave this homeowner a clean, dry, and stable crawl space!

A homeowner in Bruceton Mills called Baker's Waterproofing for a free crawl space estimate. On the day of the estimate, our Service Advisor, Greg, inspected the inside and outside of the husband's and wife's home.

During the inspection, Greg found water coming up from the ground in addition to some puddling in the crawl space. The crawl space didn't have any vents and was completely sealed off with a thin, plastic liner. The couple also had an existing dehumidifier that they have been running. Greg designed a custom proposal that would fix the water problem along the crawl space floor. The couple signed this proposal and scheduled an installation date.

The installation crew was led by our Foreman, Ken. First, they removed the old, failing liner. The crew addressed the crawl space moisture by placing a sump pump beneath the ground and 78 feet of drainage piping. Ken and his crew helped prevent puddling with our CleanSpace system. They placed our raised drainage matting directly on the ground to help direct moisture to the sump pump. Then, they re-sealed the crawl space with our durable, 100% waterproof CleanSpace liner.

Now, the couple has peace of mind with their new and improved crawl space.
